A phinisi built for Komodo and Raja Ampat is designed destination-ready: range between fuel stops, tankage for long itineraries away from a dock, ground tackle for coral anchorages, and the draft and handling to work tight sites. The build happens in Bulukumba; the boat is drawn to go east and work.
Range and tankage
These itineraries run far from fuel and water. The design carries range and tankage for the longest legs, so the boat is never planning around the next dock instead of the next dive site.
Anchoring and handling
Coral anchorages demand proper ground tackle and careful handling. Draft and manoeuvring are drawn for tight sites, and the deck is laid out so the crew can set and recover anchor safely in current.
Designed here, working there
Destination-readiness is a design choice, not a location claim — the yard is in Bulukumba, and the boats it draws for the east are specified for exactly those waters. That is how a hull arrives in Komodo already fit for the job.
